Lewis Watt is an ordinary schoolboy, living at the boarding school where his mother works as school nurse. But when his mother disappears, she leaves Lewis a letter which changes his life forever. Both Lewis and his mother, it seems, are connected with a mysterious South American Tribe which has the secret of invisibility. Could it be that Lewis will develop the power to vanish? Meanwhile the secret order known as the Light Crusaders wants to uncover the secret of invisibility. Dedicated to freeing the world of evil by whatever means possible the Crusaders believe that the power of invisibility will allow them to infiltrate crime gangs and stop all sorts of crimes. If Lewis and his friends are sacrificed in the quest for the secret, it is a price the Crusaders are willing to pay. With letters, historical documents, emails and newspaper articles sprinkled throughout, this book is a touch of fantasy, lots of intrigue and twists and turns.
